I miss you!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Although she wasn\u2019t Bolden\u2019s flesh-and-blood granddaughter, the child had developed a special bond with the 69-year-old after having been under her wing during ages 2 and 3 \u2013 through Catholic Charities\u2019 Foster Grandparent Program.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In operation for more than 35 years, the program pairs seniors ages 55 years and older with youngsters who need a little extra, one-on-one attention in the classroom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIt\u2019s just a joy, this program. It keeps me young,\u201d said Bolden, a Foster Grandparent who volunteers 40 hours a week at the Incarnate Word Head Start Center, located in the Carrollton area of New Orleans. Most days, Bolden helps the two children to whom she is assigned with their alphabet and numbers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI color with them; I play games with them; I get on the floor with them,\u201d Bolden said. \u201cIf I wasn\u2019t working here, I would be volunteering in a hospital. I just enjoy helping people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>East and West Bank venues<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Currently, 76 Foster Grandparents serve at 18 locations, including at four of the five Head Start centers operated by Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans: Incarnate Word, St. John the Baptist, St. Paul the Apostle and St. Mary of the Angels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Foster Grandparents\u2019 reach also includes three Catholic elementary schools (Resurrection of Our Lord and St. Mary\u2019s Academy in New Orleans, and St. Anthony in Gretna); nine charter and public schools; and Head Start centers operated by Kingsley House and the Urban League.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cGenerally, our volunteers<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>are retired principals, teachers and bus drivers who really are missing the children, who want to be back in the classroom,\u201d said Priscilla Mantilla, program director. \u201cThis gives them a way to work with children, without the responsibilities of putting together all those lesson plans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Those Foster Grandparents who meet U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HSS) poverty guidelines are paid an hourly stipend of $2.65. They may commit to as few as five hours per week, up to as many as 40 weekly hours, Mantilla said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cOur grant is under Senior Corps, which is the sister of Americorps,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Unique personalities<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Bolden, a six-year veteran of the program, loves working with her requested age group of 2- and 3-year olds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cYou never know what\u2019s gonna come out of their little mouths. Out of the clear, blue sky they say the funniest things!\u201d Bolden said, noting that she enjoys teaching her precocious little ones their birth month and birth year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWe\u2019ll bring them to the cafeteria to help them get their food and open their milk cartons,\u201d she said. \u201cWe learn to wash our hands and carry our tray to the table.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Bolden, a widowed empty-nester who was twiddling her thumbs after retiring from a career as a nursing assistant and casino card dealer, heard about Foster Grandparents through a friend involved in the program. She meets some of her fellow volunteers for dinner a few times a year and celebrates holidays and birthdays with them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIf you just sit at home all day long, then everything goes downhill,\u201d Bolden said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Monthly check-ins, tracking<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Foster Grandparents from all 18 locations gather at the program\u2019s Incarnate Word headquarters once a month to troubleshoot challenges they might be encountering in the classroom. The monthly gatherings typically feature a social and educational component, with recent topics including diabetes management, hurricane preparedness and introductory yoga.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">They also discuss the academic progress of their \u201cfoster grandchildren,\u201d which is tracked under a requirement of the Senior Corps grant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cNot only do we track (students\u2019 performance), but the schools track it, too. The students are doing much better in their LEAP testing,\u201d Mantilla said, praising her Foster Grandparents\u2019 on-the-job patience, consistency and listening skills. She said some of her volunteers love working with their students so much, they dislike sacrificing classroom time to attend the monthly gatherings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cStatistically, (volunteering) does help with depression; it helps them get out of their homes,\u201d Mantilla said. \u201cSome of them don\u2019t have anything to do at home \u2013 their children are grown and living their lives, and their (real) grandchildren might be living out of state. This gives them something beneficial to look forward to every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Terms of endearment<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Lois Cambre, a 25-year Catholic Charities employee who is retiring next month after 14 years as the Foster Grandparent Program\u2019s coordinator, said the oldest currently serving volunteer is 95. She marveled at how one Foster Grandparent, who began volunteering at age 85, \u201cis as energetic as someone in their 50s.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">They usually are called the same name their biological grandchildren use to address them, such as \u201cNana,\u201d \u201cGranny\u201d and \u201cYa Ya.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cWhen students first meet their Foster Grandparent, some of them will say, \u2018I already have a grandmother,\u2019 but they tell them, \u2018I\u2019m just gonna be your grandmother while you\u2019re here at school,\u2019\u201d Cambre said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cAnother thing is, (our volunteers) don\u2019t have to discipline \u2013 that\u2019s the role of the teacher,\u201d Cambre added. \u201cThey are just there to hug and nurture the children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><i>\u00a0All faiths are welcome to apply.
